In full - registration to Spectator req'd. by Douglas Davis Pay attention, Professor. If you support the proposed academic boycott of Israel and if you are to remain intellectually honest prepare for a radical lifestyle change. Firstly, unplug your computer. Good. Now switch off your interactive digital television set. Well done. And now throw away your mobile phone. Excellent. You see, Professor, these machines are not only the engine of the globalised, capitalist world but they also depend on technologies that have been produced by Israeli academics in the Zionist entity. Stop playing with your detached mouse, Professor, and concentrate. I'm afraid you may not use the British Library because it has been computerised by Ex Libris, a Zionist company that was spawned by the odious Hebrew University of Jerusalem. And if, God forbid, you develop problems of the small intestine, you may not pop the Zionist-invented 'video capsule', which passes naturally through your body as it monitors this delicate piece of your anatomy. You will, sadly, have to take it up the derriere, Professor. As a matter of principle, of course. But remember: your principle allows your proctologist to keep his hand in. All this boycotting, you see, is the logical extension of proposed academic sanctions against Israel by some members of your Association of University Teachers (AUT) when they meet in Eastbourne next Wednesday. Just visit the website of Egyptian-born Mona Baker of the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. She set the standard by firing two Israeli scholars from the boards of her translation journals as a matter of high academic principle. |

#4 AUT henceforth will mean Anti-semitic-assclown University Teachers. These stupid, illegitimate, rectal openings should be stripped of their credentials and run out of education. |

#2 It did get noised about at the time, but she was supported by pretty much the entire body of European academia at the time. |

#1 "...firing two Israeli scholars from the boards of her translation journals as a matter of high academic principle." I'm not sure,but in America this would get her ass suied for discrimination. |
